TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEMS

Please read the following before calling the service center.

1. The stand mixer may become warm during use. Under heavy loads with extended mixing time periods, you may not be able to comfortably touch the top of the stand mixer. This is normal.

2. The stand mixer may emit a pungent odor, especially when new. This is common with electric motors.

• Make sure the speed control lever is set to the OFF/Oposition.

• Unplug the stand mixer or disconnect power.

• Burnished (bare metal) flat beaters, PowerKnead _'' Spiral

Dough Hook, and wire whips should be hand washed in hot soapy water and dried immediately after washing. Do not wash burnished accessories in the dishwasher.

• All mixing bowls, coated (white) flat beaters, and coated (white) dough hooks are dishwasher safe.

• Wipe mixer with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads. Do not immerse mixer in water.

• Wipe off beater shaft frequently to remove any residue that may accumulate. Do not store accessories on the beater shaft.

BEATERTO BOWL CLEARANCE

Your stand mixer is adjusted at the factory so the flat beater just clears the bottom of the bowl. If, for any reason, the flat beater hits the bottom of the bowl, or is too far away from the bowl, you can correct the clearance easily.

NOTE: Adjustments should be made only with the flat beater in place.

2.

3.

4.

5.

Make sure the speed control lever is set to the OFF/0 position.

Unplug the stand mixer or disconnect power.

Place the bowl-lift lever in the down position.

Attach the mixing bowl and flat beater.

Gently turn screw (A) slightly counterclockwise to raise the bowl (reduced beater clearance), or clockwise to lower the bowl

(increased beater clearance). A slight turn is all that is required; the full range of adjustment is achieved in just _/2turn of the screw. Do not rotate the screw more than _/2turn in either direction.

6. Raisethe bowl into mixing position.

7. Examine the clearance between the beater and the bowl. The beater should just clear the surface of the bowl. If it does not, lower the bowl and readjust.

NOTE: When properly adjusted, the flat beater will not strike the bottom or sides of the bowl while the mixer is running. If the beater or professional wire whip strikes the bowl, damage may result.

MIXING TIPS

Converting Your Recipe for the Mixer

The following mixing instructions can help guide you in converting your own favorite recipes and mixing methods for use with your

KitchenAid _'stand mixer.

The "quick mix" method (sometimes referred to as the "dump" method) is ideal for simple cake recipes. This method calls for combining dry ingredients with most or all-liquid ingredients in one step.

More elaborate cake recipes should be prepared using the traditional cake mixing method commonly referred to as the "creaming" method. With this method, sugar and shortening, butter, or margarine are thoroughly mixed (creamed) before other ingredients are added.

For all cakes, mixing times may vary because your KitchenAid®stand mixer mixes faster than most other mixers.

In general, mixing a cake with a

KitchenAid _'stand mixer will take about half the time recommended in most cake recipes.

To help determine the ideal mixing time, observe the batter or dough and mix only until it has the desired appearance described in your recipe, such as "smooth and creamy." To select the best mixing speed for the job, use the Speed Control Guide.

Adding Ingredients

Always add ingredients as close to the side of the bowl as possible, not directly into the moving beater. The

Pouring Shield* can simplify adding ingredients. If the ingredients in the bottom of bowl are not thoroughly mixed, then the beater-to-bowl clearance must be adjusted. See

"Beater to Bowl Clearance" section.

Cake Mixes

When preparing packaged cake mixes, use Speed 2 for low speed,

Speed 4 for medium speed, and

Speed 6 for high speed. For the best results, mix for the time stated on the package directions.

Adding Nuts, Raisins, or

Candied Fruits

Follow individual recipes for guidelines on including these ingredients. In general, solid materials should be folded into the mix during the last few seconds of mixing on the STIRSpeed. The batter should be thick enough to keep the fruit or nuts from sinking to the bottom of the pan during baking. Sticky fruits should be dusted with flour for better distribution in the batter.

Liquid Mixtures

Mixtures containing large amounts of liquid ingredients should be mixed at lower speeds to avoid splashing.

Increase the speed only after the mixture has thickened.

*If Pouring Shield is included.

EGG WHITES

Place room temperature egg whites in a clean, dry bowl. Attach the bowl and wire whip. To avoid splashing, gradually turn to designated speed and whip to the desired stage. See chart below.

WHIPPING CREAM

Pour cold whipping cream into a chilled bowl. Attach the bowl and wire whip. To avoid splashing, gradually turn to designated speed and whip to desired stage. See chart below:

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

FOR MIXING AND KNEADING YEAST

DOUGH WITH THE RAPID MIX METHOD

"Rapid Mix" describes a bread baking method that calls for dry yeast to be mixed with other dry ingredients before liquid is added. In contrast, the traditional method is to dissolve yeast in warm water.

1. Place all dry ingredients including yeast into bowl, except last 1 to

2 cups (235 to 475 mL) flour.

2. Attach bowl and dough hook.

Raise mixer bowl. Turn to Speed

2 and mix about 15 seconds, or until ingredients are combined.

3. Continuing on Speed 2, gradually add liquid ingredients to flour mixture and mix 1 to 2 minutes longer. See Illustration A.

NOTE: If liquid ingredients are added too quickly, they will form a pool around the dough hook and slow down mixing process.

4. Continuing on Speed 2, gently add remaining flour, _/2cup

(120 mL) at a time. See

Illustration B. Mix until dough starts to clean sides of bowl, about 2 minutes.

5. Knead on Speed 2 for 2 more minutes, or until dough is smooth and elastic.

See Illustration C.

6. Lower bowl on mixer and remove dough from the bowl and dough hook. Follow directions in recipe for rising, shaping and baking.

When using the traditional method to prepare a favorite recipe, dissolve yeast in warm water in warmed bowl. Add remaining liquids and dry ingredients, except last 1 to 2 cups

(235 to 475 mL) flour. Turn to

Speed 2 and mix about 1 minute, or until ingredients are thoroughly mixed. Proceedwith steps 4 through 6.

Both methods work equally well for bread preparation. However, the "Rapid Mix" method may be a bit faster and easier for new bread bakers. It is slightly more temperature tolerant because the yeast is mixed with dry ingredients rather than with warm liquid.

BREAD MAKING TIPS

Making bread with a mixer is quite different from making bread by hand.

Therefore, it will take some practice before you are completely comfortable with the new process. For your convenience, we offer these tips to help you become accustomed to bread making the KitchenAid '_ brand way.

Start out with an easy recipe, like

Basic White Bread until you are familiar with using the dough hook.

• ALWAYS use the dough hook to mix and knead yeast doughs.

• Use Speed 2 to mix or knead yeast doughs. Use of any other speed creates high potential for stand mixer failure.

containing the dough can be placed on a wire rack over a pan of hot water. (2) The bowl can be placed on the top rack of an unheated oven; put a pan of hot water on the rack below. (3) Turn the oven to 400°F (200°C) for

1 minute; then turn it off; place the bowl on the center rack of the oven and close the door.

• Do not use recipes calling for more than 14 cups (3.4 L) all-purpose flour or 8 cups (1.9 L) whole-wheat flour when making dough with a

6 qt (5.7 L) mixer.

Cover bowl with waxed paper, if desired. Always cover with towel to retain warmth in the bowl and to keep drafts away from the dough.

• Do not use recipescalling for more than 12 cups (3 L) all-purpose flour or 6 cups (1.5 L) whole-wheat flour when making dough with a 5 qt

(4.73 L) mixer.

Recipe rising times may vary due to temperature and humidity in your kitchen. Dough has doubled in bulk when indentation remains after tips of fingers are pressed lightly and quickly into dough.

• Use a candy or other kitchen thermometer to assure that liquids are at temperature specified in the recipe. Liquids at higher temperature can kill yeast, while liquids at lower temperatures will retard yeast growth.

• Warm all ingredients to room temperature to insure proper rising of dough. If yeast is to be dissolved in bowl, always warm bowl first by rinsing with warm water to avoid cooling of liquids.

• Allow bread to rise in a warm place, 80% to 85% (26°C to 29°C), free from draft, unless otherwise specified in recipe.

• Here are some alternative rising methods to use: (1) The bowl

Most bread recipes give a range for the amount of flour to be used.

Enough flour has been added when the dough starts to clean sides of bowl. If dough is sticky or humidity is high, slowly add more flour, about _/2cup (120 mL) at a time but do not exceed recommended flour capacity.

Knead after each addition until flour is completely worked into dough. If too much flour is added, a dry loaf will result.

When done, yeast breads and rolls should be deep golden brown in color. Other tests for doneness of breads are: Bread pulls away from the sides of pan, and tapping on the top of the loaf produces a hollow sound. Turn loaves and rolls onto racks immediately after baking to avoid sogginess.

SHAPING A LOAF

JLx,_,

Divide dough in half. On lightly floured surface, roll each half into a rectangle, approximately

9x 14"(22.5 x35 cm). A rolling pin will smooth dough and remove gas bubbles.

Pinch ends and turn under. Place, seam side down, in loaf pan.

Follow directions in recipe for rising and baking.

Starting at a short end, roll dough tightly. Pinch dough to seal seam.
